Right on the money (as it were). What happens when the plans we need as a society go beyond the quarterly profit statement? Are we systemically able to rise to that challenge?

Where is My Comment Praising Article.??
George Carlin had a skit called the American Dream with the catch phrase: "You have to be asleep to believe it."
Seriously, CNBC just had another business guru interview about "growth", the "GDP", the "Fed Res/Treasury" and the economic outlook. The exception was he actually "admitted" to a "shadow" government and kludged or, if you will, prevalent use of "alternate" figures. You know how this goes. If you're not getting a check for unemployment you not counted of unemployed. Specifically he address the reported (official) rate of inflation vs GDP as opposed to the more accurate (shadow government figures) of the "real" inflation rate vs GDP. He used this to illustrate how inaccurately data is portrayed in order to down play or obfuscate the darker nature of what's really going on. Such as when calculating inflation such things and "volatile" commodities such as oil, energy and various food staples are discounted. He further illustrated how this is with the middle (and lower class) exclusion of these market sectors/commodities mean little (if not absolutely nothing) related to accurately gauge the economic landscape and it's ramifications a (as our) society.
The only heartening thing I see is a glimmer of reality and light seem to be seeping into the general population, despite the media bombardment to the contrary. Maybe it's the advent of such things we see in regards to what fomented the "Arab Spring" and the global reaction to economic inequity. Time will tell, but at present it's still as bad as it ever was. Generally it seem the trend to understanding it would be to double it – as in unemployment is at "X", it's really at "X" squared (actually "x 1.8"). Inflation is actually, 50% more in the middle/lower income sectors (actually overall but the upper classes feel it far less). Again, the question, will this be a passing event (between 10 to 15 years by many learned estimations) or a new normative of society where in chronic unemployment and marked class separation are the rule of the day?
A clear, focused article and that ties a lot pieces together. Highly recommended! Keep them coming Dylan!
